    Summertime smallmouth season on the Muskegon

    Its time to bust out the smallie gear as the river heats up, so does the smallmouth fishing. Fly anglers should concentrate on streamer patterns imitating both small baitfish and crayfish patterns. Surface poppers are a blast to fish as well….typically the bass will let you know what presentation the prefer fairly quickly. if they are hot on the bite the poppers are hard to beat.

    Fall salmon trips as well as steelhead trips are booking as well. Don’t wait….

    Summer is here and flying by!!

    The trout fishing has been consistent as of late, with the bigger fish getting a bit smarter now. Hatches include Grey Drakes, Sulphur’s, caddis (both green and cinnamon) The Pm should see Hexes this week if it stays warm. Nymph fishing has been great on the Muskegon during the day in the faster slots and pocket water in the upper river. Try small bead heads, caddis pupae, sow bugs and small grey scuds.

    Smallmouth bass numbers are on the rise and should start fishing well this week if it stays warm. Try streamers and surface poppers.

    May 15 and its currently snowing!!!

    The steelhead are pretty much done now, and we are switching gears towards summer trout and smallmouth bass on the Muskegon as well running the big boat on Lake Michigan. Either way I am looking forward to some great weather, great people and the fantastic fishing that Michigan has to offer.

    Look for the hatches on the Muskegon to get cranking later in the coming week as temperatures moderate and the bugs start popping. Gray Drakes, PMD’s and cinnamon caddis. Don’t forget the streamers rods too, as salmon and steelhead fry are easy meals for the trout to target.

     

    Give us a call if you are interested in some hydro therapy. Both full and half day trips are available.
